17th July 2014: Pizza Port San Clemente, first flight, last beer on the paddle. Poured black, with a thin tanned head. The nose was all about burnt malts, with a sweeter undertone of treacle and dark chocolates (filled with caramel). The taste was a smooth extension of those aforementioned smells, but not so burnt and with a rich coffee thrown into the brew. Nice!

17th July 2014 San Clemente Pizza Port, on my first flight of the day. Very dark brown, almost black in colour, dark beige head. The aroma was over roasted malts, dark bitter chocolate and mildly smoky. The taste very similar to the nose with some added liquorice for good measure. Seemed stronger than the advertised 5.6% ABV, very drinkable.

17th July 2014, this beer was on my first flight of the day at Pizza Port’s San Clemente place. Poured a pale yellow with a thin white head. Has a malty, yet citrus hoppy aroma. The taste was more leaning towards bitter hoppiness leaving most of the citrus notes in the nose and the maltiness as a forgotten undertone. Liked it. Good body depth and the 5.4% ABV suited it nicely.

On my first flight at Pizza Port San Clemente, on 17th July 2014. Came with an orange hue to it’s body, the head a creamy white affair. Aroma was a little bready/biscuity with an apple pie hint. The taste was also apple pie like with those bready malts coming through: I did not take to it at all, nothing like an English Pub Ale (whatever that is) to me. A strange mixture of a weak cider and beer almost: glad I only tried it on a flight.

GBBF Day 2. Cask. Opaque dark brown beer, residual tan head. Palate is dry with fine carbonation. Dry rich dark malts. Unsweet dark chocolate, savoury like salted dark chocolate. Big roast and dark chocolate bitterness. Touch of soy. Dry finish. Savoury aftertaste. Not a fan, too savoury, bitter and dry. Quite hard to drink.

On my first flight of beers while in Pizza Port San Clemente on 17th July 2014. Golden with a thin white covering. The aroma was semi-sweet and fruity with a mini yeast hint, the taste followed on the same. A pleasant enough Tripel with an alcohol content that is hidden well by the flavours.

17th July 2014, on my first flight in the San Clemente Pizza Port. Sweet feel to this hazy golden brew. Not as much vanilla and banana flavours as most beers of this style I have had in Germany, but this was refreshing and interesting. Light bitterness towards the end of each sip, I enjoyed my sample.
